About this listen

In this deeply philosophical (and by that, we mean absolutely chaotic) episode, Simone and Hilary get way too into their zodiac signs. Do the stars actually know them better than they know themselves? Probably. Are they still side-eyeing the whole thing? Also yes. Then, it's a deep dive into the Beta Generation—both the kids and the fish. Coincidence? Almost certainly. Are they doomed to a lifetime of second place? The jury's still out. But wait—there's more! We debate the absolute worst ways to die (spoiler: they’re all terrible), attempt to rebrand the word stubborn (because it's just passionate with bad PR), and praise the unparalleled joy that is everything bagel spice and Trader Joe’s cookie butter (AKA the two pillars of millennial snacking).

Also, let’s take a moment to appreciate that Merriam-Webster’s Instagram is 100% run by a Gen Z intern, and it’s everything. Educational? Yes. Sassy? Absolutely. Better than your favorite influencer? No question. So buckle up—whether you're rage-tweeting about airplane etiquette (to recline or not to recline?) or struggling to understand why journaling is an actual thing, this episode is for you.SEO-friendly buzzwords: astrology, Gen Beta, worst ways to die, airplane drama, journaling struggles, everything bagel spice, Trader Joe’s cookie butter, Merriam-Webster Instagram, millennial chaos.
